Sexually abusing children is not the only thing the catholic church should be blasted for. In Ireland, in the 50'60'70's, pregnant, unmarried women were sent to Laundry Houses, run by nuns, who hit, raped, abused and imprisoned those women for years (the last one closed in 1996). THE CATHOLIC CHURCH SHOULD BE ABOLISHED. If it were any other organisation, it would have been burned to the ground by now.

look at this pig calling o'connor irresponsible, while finding a way to defend the cover up of child rape. shame on him. i wish there was a hell for people like this to go to.

In her mature years Sinead has become more confident, less angry and still as brave as ever. And her eyes are still beautiful.

Creepy, sinister, opportunistic, weasely, cult! Lookin at these guys in dresses makes me squirm! In any other walk of life, if your caught harbouring child rapists ie, conspiring with /or aiding and abetting a paedophile ring, you spend a lot of time in jail! ... AND it shouldn't be for the Pope to punish them. Whats he gonna do? Make them pray more! These people have commited the ultimate betrayal/worst crime imaginable and ARE CRIMINALS!!! - they are not above the law and they ARE NOT HOLY!

Actually the Book of Mormon says that there were multiple groups that lived in the Americas and not all of them Israelite. Stories in the BoM also imply that there were other groups of people present when Lehi and his family arrived. Besides, if you are Christian and believe that we all ultimately came from the same two parents, namely Adam and Eve, why is there a disparity between one human's DNA and anothers? Clearly there is more to this that you are considering.

Just because Catholicism is false doesn't mean that atheism is right.

christ said "By their fruits ye shal know them."

@karlsmith00 You are the one full of BS. God lives, and we are his children. You can find him. Atheism is a disease for the naive and gullible.

When you die, your spirit lives on. And will continue as such until the resurrection of the dead. The resurrection and the life of Jesus Christ are absolutely true, and you got nothing, but hell to look forward to except you repent for it won['t be pleasant.

@LDS4Life71 there is no god. you're only finding your delusions in your head.

atheism isn't a disease, you confused twit. atheism is simply the assertion that there is no evidence for the supernatural. that includes god, vishnu, zeus, the tooth fairy, the easter bunny, and santa claus.

you are the child of your mother and father, and that's it. when you die, that's the end. you aren't going anywhere. so stop wasting your time with your fraud church and skanky, lying prophet.

Just because Catholicism is false, doesn't mean that atheism is right. YOU GUYS ARE IDIOTS

@karlsmith00 You're the one full of BS. God lives, and we are his children, and you can find him. Atheism is a disease, and for the naive, and gullible.
